Toward Inferring the Surface Fluxes of Biosignature Gases on Rocky Exoplanets from Telescope Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The James Webb Space Telescope and the future Habitable Worlds Observatory aim to discover exoplanet atmospheric spectra that detect life. Currently, most existing spectral “retrieval” algorithms focus on inferring the abundances of biogenic gases from ...

Restoring Trust: Rebuilding the Forest Carbon Credit System Through Scientific Rigor

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As pivotal nature‐based climate solutions (NbCS), forests are increasingly recognized for their climate mitigation potential. However, this potential is undermined by fundamental flaws in current carbon credit systems. Our analysis identifies four interconnected systemic challenges: (1) subjective additionality assessments arising from ...

The Goldilocks Problem for Detecting Water in Terrestrial Planets: Constraining Water Abundances in the Mid-infrared with LIFE

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate how well the Large Interferometer for Exoplanets (LIFE) mission concept can detect habitable conditions on exoplanets through the presence of atmospheric water vapor as a proxy for surface oceans.

Oxidizing ExoCAM: Introducing the Radiative Effects of Oxygen and Ozone into the ExoCAM General Circulation Model

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Oxygen and ozone are two of the most important gases in Earth’s atmosphere. These arose as a result of photosynthesis and appeared prominently around 2.3–2.4 billion yr ago.

Transformative Service Ecosystems for People, Plants, Place, Planet, and Prosperity: A Sustainable Operations Management Perspective

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
The Transformative Service Ecosystem for Sustainable Operations Management (TSESOM) model reframes operations management as a co‐creative ecosystem shaped by philosophical foundations and macro–meso–micro contexts. Integrating governance, resilience, learning, systems thinking, and interdisciplinary collaboration, TSESOM advances regenerative SDG‐ and ...

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

The CUISINES Framework for Conducting Exoplanet Model Intercomparison Projects, Version 1.0

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
As JWST begins to return observations, it is more important than ever that exoplanet climate models can consistently and correctly predict the observability of exoplanets, retrieval of their data, and interpretation of planetary environments from that ...
